i caught this guy Saturday night. i was real happy with the hold i had on him but turned him loose because he was a little guy. (turned loose too because of size) then Monday night a coon took a big crap right beside the set and stole my bait and kept on going. i think he pooped there to say "up yours", LOL!

I alaways stuff some wadded up grass in my pockets to keep them at the set longer. What kind of set was it?

Looks like a good hold....is that a Sleepy Creek?

yes. 90 % of the #11s we use for coon trapping are Sleepy Creeks.

alot better than it did the firt week last year. course last year season opned a full week earlier.
we're being pretty selective...te dinks and any we can tell are blue we let go.
no need putiong them up if theyre blue, especially not this year.
weve been very selective on the possum we have put up bout half of the ones weve caught. the rest we turned loose.
